Eva June Royles-Hill's Obituary
Surrounded by love and light,
Eva "June" Hill answered her call to come home, May 30th, 2022.
Eva June Royles was born in February of 1937 in rural Lacrosse, Arkansas. Being born during
the depression would prove formative in her ability to adapt and survive much heartache as an
adult. As a young teen she moved to Kansas City, Missouri. She graduated from Northeast High
School in Kansas City, Missouri. While still in school she was a spicy carhop at the A&W in
Independence, Mo. That is where she met her daredevil, sweetheart-Robert Eugene Hill.
In 1954 they would be married. She and "Bob" received the Sacrament of Marriage, at
Monsignor Freschel St. Mary's Catholic Church, in Independence Missouri.
Born into this blessed union were two daughters, one in October of 1956, Rebecca Ann White
(Don) of Independence, Missouri and another in January of 1975, Tamara Jean Hinton (Paul) of
rural Morrill, Kansas.
She is preceded in death by her beloved, Bob Hill (1974) and her grandson Anthony Lee
Giaccetti.
June became a banker/ loan originator for many years working on resolutions/closures during
the Federal Savings and Loan Crisis in the 1980's and 90's. After retirement in 2010, June
moved to Sabetha Ks.
She was an avid reader and could be found at the Sabetha library weekly. She loved fresh fruit,
music, growing flowers, dancing, traveling, shopping, jewelry and being with her grandchildren.
June loved the beauty of Arkansas and reminisced about the hills, winding roads and the
beautiful White river.
She had six beautiful grandchildren Anthony Giaccetti, Lauren White of Madison, WI., Howard
Hinton of Sabetha, Abby Hinton of Topeka, Cole and Brad Hinton of Sabetha.
Her humor, zest and love will be missed.
Family would like to thank the staff of Maple Heights Memory Care Unit, in Hiawatha, KS for
their care and love.
